Does this come with a gel pack that can be frozen and placed in the collar or do you need to place the complete collar into the freezer?

You put the whole thing in the freezer, and if you want it cold, you must disregard the instructions and put it in the freezer NOT in a plastic bag. It works nicely, but doesn't get hugely cold, even that way. Done this way, it IS comfortable and comforting, however.

the entire collar goes in the freezer. it stays soft though and the more you use it the more flesible it becomes.

My collar has not failed to confine her yet after 3+ months on a very active Platt hound puppy! She has been out in the rain but has not submerged collar in water; so I don't know about that. Very satisfied with 5134G2.

unfortunately, my dog hasn't had the need to have the collar submerged in water since i live in the city and my dog doesn't come into contact with any type of water submergen in the winter time. right now, he has only worn it in the rain with no problem and wallowing his neck in the snow so i really can't say. Sorry.

It fits around my Scottie's head. No clasps. My Scotties wear the collar all of the time because it is loose fitting. When on a walk, the collar tightens if the dog tugs.

From their website: "The collar can also be heated in a conventional oven at 250°F for 10-15 minutes. Place collar on cookie sheet or baking dish in the center of the oven. Do not allow straps to touch the heating element. Rotate the collar after 6 minutes, top to bottom and if folded, inside to out."jSource: http://www.elastogel.com/images/stories/pdf/DFU/cc102.pdf

I never remove the collar. That's a good way to forget to put it back on and now your Pooch can roam freely. Sounds like that rumor was started by someone's Dog.

Yes, it comes with a collar. I have a small dog, about 5lbs and had to wrap some rubber tape around the collar to get the prongs tight enough. I am real happy with the one I have. I have had to replace the batteries a couple of times, and my dog broke the shock part, had to buy a new one. It was not the fault of the unit, I am not sure how it broke. I think I have had it about 3 years. I would recommend to a friend.

Yes, this comes with a refill bottle. Just make sure that you see that it comes that way, when you purchase the collar.

NO FREEZER PACK with this shipment. It was COLD Here in Washington when this was received.. We were surprised that it did not ship with FREEZE PACK

This is not one that you soak in water. The frozen gel will last a while depending on how hot it is outside and how hot your skin temp usually is. If it is very hot outside and you have a high skin temp normally I would say the packs will last about two hours or so frozen. You still get some cooling though through the liquid gel for a little bit. I would get an extra set and keep it in a cooler in your car or on your work site if possible. That is what we have done for my mom and it works great for her.

It's a collar on its own. No need to use another collar with this one. You can hook your leash and dog tags to the loop and go.

It is filled with some sort of gel that feels cool to the touch. I don't put it in the refrigerator or anything, just use it as it is. I bought this to replace a water filled pad that kept getting mildewy. The only dog this would not be suited for is a chewer (because that might release the gel in the pad). Anyway, my dog likes it...It is soft and cooler than her body temperature.

It comes with the insert. We just keep the whole thing in the freezer. Every so often we'll throw the wrap in the wash (we usually try to pull it out before the laundry hits the dryer) and rinse down the insert. It's good to know you can buy additional inserts as replacements or to keep one in the freezer and rotate them but not required.

That's okay. It'll stay just fine in the gelatine like state. To the freezer with it! :)
